Slovakia Banknotes Catalog

The history of banknotes in Slovakia reflects the country's political and economic changes over time. From its independence in 1993 to the adoption of the euro in 2009, Slovakia has undergone several monetary transitions that have left a significant mark on its notafilia.

Old Slovak banknotes

Following the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, Slovakia introduced its own currency, the Slovak koruna, in 1993. Banknotes of this era featured designs honoring important historical and cultural figures of the country. Among the most notable were the 20-koruna bill featuring Prince Pribina, the 50-koruna note featuring St. Cyril and St. Methodius, and the 1000-koruna bill depicting Milan Rastislav Štefánik, a prominent Slovak politician and astronomer.

Changeover to the euro

Slovakia adopted the euro on January 1, 2009, becoming the 16th country in the European Union to do so. This changeover marked the end of the circulation of Slovak koruna banknotes, which were gradually withdrawn. Slovakia now uses the standard euro banknotes issued by the European Central Bank, which are common throughout the eurozone. However, Slovak euro coins retain national designs on their reverse, thus preserving part of the country's numismatic identity.
